Of Two Minds

Blame Game

The front door finally opened, after hours of waiting, and I took a deep breath, hoping to find out that this whole thing was a lie.

"Hey babe", he bent over the back of the couch to kiss my cheek. He headed to the kitchen and I followed. "Uh, Luke, where were you?", I asked quietly. I didn't want to sound like a clingy, invasive girlfriend.

"You know I had to get that job done today", he said after chugging down almost half a bottle of water."Oh", I said plainly, not knowing how to bring up the question.

"Why?", he looked at me closer, "Were you crying babe?", he gently traced under my eye with his thumb. "What happened while I was away?"

"No Luke, what happened at the club last night?", I asked, regretting ever bringing this up.

"What are you talking about?"

"Did you get a...did you hook up with somebody?" I looked into his eyes, reading him and his thoughts. He looked away slightly, "Selena what, what are you talking about?", he seemed to be getting nervous.

"Don't lie to me Luke!"He hesitated, "...Okay"

"Are you serious?", I shot at him.

"Who told you, was it Miley?"

"What does Miley have to do with this Lu-" I paused, my mouth in a full circle. "Wait? Miley?! Miley gave you a fucking blowjob?" At this moment I came to the realization that my so-called friend was acting a bit off later into the night.

"I'm sorry Selena. I'm really s-"

"This is some bullshit, I can't fucking believe you Luke!" I started to run upstairs, but he grabbed my arm, pulling me back, "Baby, I'm sorry."

"Get off of me", I ran up to his room and immediately started to pull my things out of his drawers. He followed behind me, pleading for my forgiveness. "Selena, please, I'm so sorry. That was one of the biggest mistakes of my life. I can't lose you, please don't leave me."

"Luke you cheated on-" I stopped. I stopped throwing my clothes into my bag, too. I couldn't leave him, I couldn't be mad at him either. I cheated. Yea he cheated on me with one of my friends. But i cheated on him with his brother...When it's my turn to beg and plead for forgiveness, will he forgive me? I was being a bitch. A hypocritical bitch, who only thinks of herself. I sighed as I placed all my items, I had just removed from the drawers, back in.

"Selena I love you, and I'm sorry. I promise I'll never do this again." He hugged me tight.

I pushed him away gently, shuffling off into another room. I was still mad at Luke, I couldn't sleep in his bed with him.In the morning, I woke up to dark windows, most likely it was 6 or something, the sun hadn't risen. I felt an arm wrapped around my waist. I turned in bed, jumping slightly, when I realized it was Taylor. "Taylor?", I called him, but he just groaned, trying to ignore my voice."Taylor!", I called again, in a yell this time.

"Huh?", he blinked open his eyes.

"Why are you here?"

"What?"

I sighed, "I said why are you here?"

"I should be asking you that, you're the one who came to sleep in my room last night."

"I'm not in your-", I looked around, "Oh. I am in your room."

"That's right", he reminded me.

"Whatever", I rolled my eyes.

"Now go back to sleep or get outta here"

"Fine!"

"Fine!", he repeated me, turning away from me.I hesitated at first, but then decided to move closer and rest my head on his side. When he realized, he rested his arm around my neck, caressing me. I could have stayed like that forever until a few hours later, I was awoken by yelling.
